Factor out −2 from the expression
x(x+3)−2(x+3)
Factor out x+3 from the expression
(x−2)(x+3)
10(x−2)(x+3)
10(x−2)(x+3)=0
Divide the terms
(x−2)(x+3)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
x−2=0x+3=0
Solve the equation for x
More Steps

Evaluate
x−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=2
x=2x+3=0
Solve the equation for x
